One time they told me I had 3 days left to enjoy YouTube with my ad blocker, and then I would have to buy premium, or they would just lock me out of the site. I was like "welp, it had a good run, I guess that's it for ol' YouTube."
But then the 3 days went buy and nothing ever came of it.
That tactic probably did get them some preemptive subscriptions though, unfortunately.
I had to drive a truck recently, (needed to rent a vehicle, and they only had pickups left.) It was a chevrolet Colorado, which I understand to be one of the smaller trucks available in North America, and I was so happy to get rid of it at the end of the trip. It was fine on the highway, but in the city it was just incredibly awkward. Cumbersome handling, blind spots for days...I constantly felt like I was going to hit something.
I can't even imagine how clueless you'd be about your immediate surroundings in a monstrosity like what's pictured here.
Yeh, if I ever see my TV's OS I'm like "fuck off! HDMI4!"
Oooh, trains? I am sold.
So they're either in the "no one wants to buy" situation, with a product that doesn't quite measure up and a lower price is the incentive to buy, or they reach parity with AMD, and bring the price up to match as well.
Maybe there is a window in between where they're sacrificing some profit to grow their market share, and regular customers benefit, but I have 0 faith in this economic system.
Well I hope you're right that there kind of is, I am 0% expert on this stuff.
The consequences of dangerous driving should be borne by the people driving dangerously, and no one else.
I really want there to be a legal precedent for all these stupid terms of service things being invalid because we all know no one reads them and you can't realistically function in contemporary society without clicking those "agree" buttons from time to time.
*Although this case is not that, because disney's claim is insane for other reasons.
I'm skeptical about how much another competitor would help...if intel can offer a comparable product, they'll get right in on the price gouging too. Why wouldn't they?
After getting the first Shapez free on epic, I might actually pay for this one. It looks very cool.

Fuck cars but I think it's a Camry, which is actually a mid-size car.
